Browser: Autofill hotkey for macOS Safari and Non-US keyboard layout

Created on 17 Aug 2018  路  7Comments  路  Source: bitwarden/browser

The Autofill hotkey on macOS for Safari (Cmd+) does not work on a DK keyboard layout.
On a DK layout I have to hold down option+shift and press 7 to make a '\' but Shift+Cmd+\ is already a Safari shortcut for "Show Tab Overview".

+1 for German layout

I'm also facing this issue on a French AZERTY layout, which renders the extension far more a pain to use on Safari.

+1 for German layout

I tried rebinding the overlapping shortcut in the macOS settings:

Now simply nothing happens as I press the correct combination (QWERTY, German layout). I considered switching from 1Password, this is a dealbreaker right now.

Any news on this? I'd like to give Safari a fair try again and this issue prevents me from using the browser + Bitwarden to its full potential.

I saw on the docs that Cmd+8 was added since but it's still impossible to trigger on an AZERTY keyboard.

Please consider non-QWERTY layouts when assigning non-modifiable keyboard shortcuts 馃槙

I'd like to point out that Cmd+Shift+K and Cmd+Shift+M don't seem to be taken on (my) Safari.

Cmd+Shift+M could work....

is 鈬р寴P taken on anyone's current mappings? I see opportunity for all, but being native autofill (鈬р寴A) is already assigned to Safari and a JavaScript plugin could not override that key combo, but 鈬р寴P for "password" could definitely work if available (and still make sense).

鈬р寴P isn't taken on my side (OS language set to french and AZERTY layout).
